Quebec City, Quebec

If you want to go to France but don't have the time or money to fly to Europe, Quebec City is calling. You’ll want to spend most of your time in Old Quebec, where you will find 17th and 18th-century buildings that are now home to boutiques, bistros, and bakeries. The UNESCO World Heritage Site is also home to cobbled squares that look like a European painting.

Consider staying at a bed and breakfast in Old Quebec. This will save you a bit of money and will put you in a prime location. Also, to get the most out of your trip, order the prix-fixe menu at the local eateries. Then, you can enjoy three or four courses of the best French food the restaurant has to offer.
